Are there any kinds of food that you have tried, and never will buy--because you just DO NOT like them?

For me, it's Lipton tea. I like many kinds of tea, but definitely not Lipton.

Barb, let me get back to this. I have several, but I have to ask my DH as he does most of the shopping.

One thing that I will not buy is Muellers spiral pasta. Sounds funny because we love their elbow mac. but the spirals fall apart and get mushy when cooking them.

Im sure there are others too but I cant think of any right now.

My will NOT buy store brand soft drinks. It has to be the real deal. I will not buy any brand except A&W root beer.

I will not buy Prego spaghetti sauce. I am pretty much sold on Emeril's brand and Hunt's. If I cannot find them, then I will make my own sauce.

I will not buy castleberry beefstew, It tastes so nasty.
It's so bad my hubby won't even eat it and he eats almost anything.

I shop at Sav-a-lot for a lot of my can goods. The prices are around 33cents a can. Even at that they have a can of green beans even cheaper so I thought I would try it. The taste is okay, but when it says"ends & pieces" they aren't kidding! Most of the ends are the tip you normally throw away the steam included! I tried them a couple of times figuring I just got a bad can, but they are all like that. I can't remember the exact brand name, but if you shop Sav-a-lot don't go for the "cheaper" green beans!

There's a Sav-a-lot where my DD lives and she saves so much money there.
